RE: Float trip tipping

[John Rowley]

I hate tipping!  It’s demeaning to the guide.  When hiring a guide, I tell them up front to add the tip they expect to the price they are going to quote me.  I don’t need the pressure and nether do they.  I do let them drink out of my bottle of scotch though.

Is it the standard 10-15% to the guide?   Thanks in advance for your responses.    The Clarkster's
